JRRT robbed?
We all know GL stole a lot from movies and literature to create his masterpieces. My question is, do you think he took anything from LOTR?

2 notes : 1)HAVE YOU BOTHERED TO READ ANYTHING OFF OF BMILDERS PAGE?! 2)GL didn't steal a lot, he just "borrowed" (see the smithsonian page on the SW exibit, shows how everything he made was inspired by something else....really nice page)

Re: JRRT robbed?

JRRT robbed? Yes but...
I love both Tolkien and Star Wars. Yes Lucas robbed Tolkien for Star Wars and Willow, but Tolkien robbed many more first. Starting with King Arthur and the Bible.

Tolkien didn't rob, he was writting mythology and all mythology, coming from the same source (at least according to me the Judeo-Christian history) is similor. He did what all the other great peoples had done, and he did it very well. Lucas took it and projected it into a new galaxy.
